NEW GUINEA MARRIAGES,
Peculiar Ceremonies characterized BY

fecul1ar Ceremonies characterized by

M. Reclus says the islanders of New

their parents. They are most fire.
quently affianced at very tender age,
but are afterwards forbidden to asso-
ciate with each other; indeed, this is
carried so far that the girl may not
even look at her future husband.
Both must avoid all contact with the
members, masculine and feminine, of
the family into which they are about
to enter. Their wedding ceremonies
are characterized by reserve and a
modesty very remarkable in savage
people of the tropics. Adorned with
the most beautiful ornaments. the bride
is conducted at night in torchlight
procession through the, village. One
woman carries her on her back, while
another binds her arms as though she
were captive, and leads her by the
rope to the house of her betrothed.
This is symbol of slavery, a souvenir
of the ancient servitude which the aris-
tocratic class has preserved. There is
nothing of this in the professions of
the poor. On reaching their destina-
ton, the bridegroom is presented to the
brides relatives, who lead him into
her chamber. She awaits him with
her back turned, indicating that she
does not dare to meet his conquering
gaze. The young man approaches till
within two feet of her, turns on his
heel, and then they are back to back.
in the midst of numerous assembly,
the men on one side, the women on the
other. After the entertainment the
bride is led into her own room, still uot
daring to meet the terrible glance
of her husband, and keeping
her back turned to the door; seeing
this, the husband also turns his ba ok
on her. The whole night is spent in
this manner; they sit there motionless,
having some one to brush away the
flies, and without speaking a word.
If they grow sleepy some one of the
assistants, who take turns in doing
this service, nudg.es him with his
elbow. If they keep wide awake they
are assured of a long, life and green
old age. In the morning they separate,
still without looking at each other, in
order to refresh themselves after the
fatigues of the previous night This
performance is continued for four
nights, and on the fifth morning, with
the first rays of the sun. the young
people may look each other full in the
face. That suffices the marriage is
considered accomplished, and the
newly welded pair receive the GUS
tomary congratulations. -AW the Year

READY MONEY IN BANKS.
Difficulty Of Cashing Very Largo Checks ut
Any Financial Concern.

Difficulty Of Cashing Very Largo Checks At
Any Financial Concern.
In gathering recently of five or six
men, most Of whom are at least re-
puted to be wealthy, doubt was ex-
pressed by each one if there is a man
in New York who could draw his
check for 81, 600, 900 and have it hon.
ored in actual cash.
One of the group, n prominent
financier. said: "Iknow of an instance
not long since which is a fair illustra-.
ton of these million dollar checks. A
London man had business transac-
ton in which payment was to be
made to him of f68, 000 For business
reasons he did not wish the checks to
be passed as in business transactions.
A check had been given to him on
Mills, Glynn, Currie & Co.. who are
the recognized outside bankers of the
Bank of England. He went to
them and demanded the cash for
the check. They had not SO much
money on hand and were obliged to
ask him to wait until they could go to
the bank of England and procure it.
When he had secured the cash he went
to the other bankers to make depos-
it. The second house refused to ac-
cept the money on deposit until he
had explained to them in the fullest
manner where he got it. They had
never had so large deposit made in
cash at one time. They would not &C
ccpt it without knowing where it came
from and looked upon him with sus-
picion for having so much cash in his
possession until he had explained the
circumstances of his business.
OF course the bank of England had
money enough to meet such check
or much larger one. the same as the
United States Treasury would be able
to meet great demand. But the
fact that f68, 900 should be stumper
for two of the biggest banking estab-
lishments of London indicates how
small part actual cash plays in the
business transactions of the day."

THE FRANKIsH KINGDOM.
The Power Welded by the Kings of Jer
for Naarlx a

The Power Welded by the Kings of Jer.
usalem for Nearly Century.
Those who are accustomed to think
of the history of the Crusades as
merely that of succession of marvel
Gus fanatic raids will have their ideas
modified when they hear of this civil
constitution of the Frankish Kingdom.
For nearly century the kings of Jer-
usalem held power over district of
about $4,000 square miles. For more
than $50 years the Syrians were ruled
by Latin race, and there is, our
author remarks, every reason to be-
ieve that they were content to be
so governed; .truly, in the present
century," he writes, Syria might still
be ruled we'll by system founded on
that of the Asszes Of Jerusalem"
Various were the races ruled by
these Christian kings-Normans,
Provencals, Italians, Germans, Frisi-
ans. and few English and Spaniards,
at one time Norsemen and Danes
among Europeans; among the native
races, Christian and Moslem. were
Greeks, Armenians. Georgians, Syr.
ians, Moslem, Fellahin and Arabs, and
apparently Persians among the Druzes
and Assassins. As the natural result
of the communion of the East and
West, the limgua Franco contained
mixture of Arabic and Italian and 9TH
err tongues of the Latin races. The
language of literature and the church
was Latin. Europeans married native
women; thus arose the race called
Poulains by the chroniclers. Baldwin
l. and Baldwin II. married Armenian
Princesses, but this did not result in
placing a half-bred King on the
throne. 1.-The alliances of the noble
families with Armenians were very
numerous, and the rosy cheeks and
dark eyes of the women of this race
seem to have been more admired than
the dusky beauties Of Syrians, even
when of Christian belief. "-Edin-
burgh Revie,o.

A Charming Instrument Which ID Grow

A Charming Instrument Which ID Grow
ing In Popular Favor.
The either pronounced tzit-tcr) is
an instrument which has Of late been
engrossing the attention of quite
number of people, and bids fair to be-
come popular in fashionable circles.
In European cities it has attained un.
usual prominence and won wcll-merit-
ed distinction, which in this country,
for lack of good teachers, it has failed
toreceive proper attention. its name is
derived from the Greek (Kitharia), the
precise shape of which is not known.
but it is supposed to have resembled
the Tyre in construction. 1t has been
wonderfully improved within the last
half century, and to-day is as complete
as any instru ment of its kind known to
the world. Its qualities are clear, hav-
ing degree of refinement and delicacy
possessed by no other instrument ex-
cept the human voice or the violin.
It. like other musical instruments Of
the higher order. has its technicalities,
being capable Of portraying variety
of emotion and expression il manipu-
lated by a first-class performer. Its
advantages are many, being small in
compass, easily carried from place to
place, especially adapted to parlor
amusement, and furthermore compris-
ing in itself melody, bass and &C.
compartment According to the form
of to-day, the instrument has five mel
ody-strings, tuned in fifths, compris.
ing in the chromatic order range Of
four ocraves and two or three semi.
tones, and twenty-five or more bass
and accompaniment strings also
tuned in fifths, comprising a range
automatically Of two octaves or more.
1t has created quite an interest among
the ladies, being well adapted to
leisure moments, and will in a short
time become favorite among them. -
